Definitions
- the present invention relates to a steam trap to automatically discharge condensate generated in various kinds of steam using equipment and steam pipe lines; and more particularly, to a thermally-actuated steam trap adapted to discharge the condensate below a desired temperature out of a system by using a temperature control element including medium which is heated and cooled by steam and condensate, and expanded and contracted in accordance with the temperature thereof.
- the thermally-actuated steam trap comprises a temperature control element obtained by filling expansible medium in an inner space formed by securing the outer peripheral edges of a disk-like wall member and a diaphragm to each other, a valve chest communicating with an inlet in which the temperature control element is provided, a valve member connected to the diaphragm, provided in the valve chest and driven by employing the expansion and contraction of the expansible medium and a valve seat member having a discharge passage through which the valve chest communicates with an outlet, on and from which the valve member is seated and separated.
- the expansible medium expands, so that the valve member is seated on the valve seat member to thereby close the discharge passage. Accordingly, the discharge of the steam is prevented.
- the condensate of low temperature enters, the expansible medium is contracted and the valve member is separated from the valve seat member to thereby open the discharge passage. Thus, the condensate is discharged out of a system.
- An object of the present invention is to open a valve member during the breakage of a temperature control element.
- Another object of the present invention is to prevent the counterflow of fluid of an outlet side to an inlet side, even when pressure at the outlet side becomes higher than that of the inlet side.
- a thermally-actuated steam trap comprising a valve casing having an inlet, a valve chest and an outlet, a valve seat member having a discharge passage between the valve chest and the outlet, a temperature control element located in the valve chest and having a cover member, a first diaphragm, a second diaphragm and a valve member and further containing an expansible medium, and the second diaphragm and the valve member attached thereto having a through hole respectively formed through which the lower face of the first diaphragm communicates with the discharge passage.
- the expansible medium contained between the cover member and the first diaphragm expands so as to displace the first diaphragm and the second diaphragm to the valve seat member side, so that the valve member attached to the second diaphragm closes the discharge passage and prevents the high temperature fluid, that is, steam from flowing out.
- the expansible medium contracts, in addition thereto, fluid pressure is also exerted so that the valve member is separated from a seated position on the valve seat member. As a result, the discharge passage is opened to thereby discharge the low temperature fluid to the outlet.
- the temperature control element when the temperature control element is broken, there are two cases, that is, one is that the first diaphragm of the cover member side is broken and that the second diaphragm of the valve seat member side is broken.
- a space filled with the expansible medium communicates with the outlet through the through hole and the discharge passage from a part between the first diaphragm and the second diaphragm.
- the expansible medium is, therefore, discharged to the outlet.
- the valve member is forced upward together with the second diaphragm due to the fluid pressure of the inlet side, separated from the valve seat member and opens the discharge passage to thereby open the valve.
- the inlet communicates with the outlet through the through hole and the discharge passage from a part between the first diaphragm and the second diaphragm so that the fluid of the inlet side may be discharged.
- a thermally-actuated steam trap comprising a valve casing having an inlet, a valve chest and an outlet, a valve seat member provided between the valve chest and the outlet, a temperature control element contacting with the valve seat member, in the valve chest and having cover member, a diaphragm and a valve member and further containing expansible medium, the valve seat member having at least one introducing passage through which a space formed between the valve seat member and the diaphragm communicates with the valve chest and at least one discharge passage through which the space communicates with the outlet and the valve member for opening and closing the introducing passage being provided in the space.
- the expansible medium contained between the cover member and the diaphragm expands so that the valve member is displaced to close the introducing passage and prevents the high temperature fluid, that is, steam from flowing out.
- the expansible medium contracts, the valve member is separated from the introducing passage so that the low temperature fluid is discharged to the outlet.
- the space in which the valve member is disposed communicates with the outlet through the discharge passage. Since the fluid pressure at the inlet side is so exerted on the valve member from the introducing passage as to open the valve member, when the temperature control element is broken, the valve member is separated from the introducing passage to open.

- the expansible medium 19 expands so that the valve member 17 is displaced downward through the first diaphragm 15 and the second diaphragm 16.
- the valve member 17 is seated on the valve seat member 9 to thereby close the discharge passage 11 and prevent the high temperature fluid, namely steam from flowing out.
- the expansible medium 19 contracts, the valve member 17 is separated from the valve seat member 9 with the addition of fluid pressure at the inlet 6 side, so that the discharge passage 11 is opened and the low temperature fluid, namely, low temperature condensate is discharged from the outlet 7.
- a temperature control element 33 of different construction is shown correspondingly to FIG. 2.
- the temperature control element 33 comprises a cover member 14, a first diaphragm 15, a second diaphragm 16, a spherical valve member 17, a bottom member 18 having a central aperture and an annular attaching member 35.
- the cover member 14, the first diaphragm 15, the second diaphragm 16 and the bottom member 18 are connected to one another by welding their outer peripheral edges and secured to the upper part of the annular attaching member 35.
- On the lower parts of the attaching member 35 are formed a plurality of windows 36 for passing fluid.
- a valve seat member 9 is so threaded to a partition wall 8 as to hold a peripheral edge at the lower end of the annular attaching member 35 between the partition wall 8 and the flanged part of the valve seat member 9.

- a through hole 23 through which the lower face of the first diaphragm 15 communicates with a discharge passage 11 is formed with the central holes of the annular member 22 and the valve member 17.
- the diameter of the valve member 17 is larger than that of the discharge passage 11 and smaller than that of the cavity part 37.
- FIG. 6 is shown another embodiment of a steam trap with different construction.
- the same components as those of the steam trap of the above-mentioned construction are generally affixed with the same reference numerals, and therefore, the explanation thereof will be omitted.
- a temperature control element 41 comprises a cover member 14, a diaphragm 42, a valve member 17 and an annular spacer 43.
- a valve seat member 9 threaded and connected to a partition wall 8 between a valve chest 4 and an outlet 7 and the spacer 43 disposed on the upper face thereof are secured by welding their outer peripheral edges which are mutually in contact.
- the spacer 43, the diaphragm 42 and the cover member 14 are secured to one another by welding their outer peripheral edges which are mutually in contact.
- a disk-like valve member 17 recessed at a part near to the center on its upper face is disposed in a space formed by the valve seat member 9, the annular spacer 43 and the diaphragm 42.
- the valve member 17 has a central penetrating through hole 47.
- the diaphragm 42 and the valve member 17 are secured by welding the diaphragm 42 to the upper and outer peripheral face of the valve member 17.
- valve seat member 9 In the valve seat member 9 is bored a discharge passage 44 at its central portion, through which a space formed by the valve seat member 9, the annular spacer 43 and the diaphragm 42 communicates with the outlet 7. On the circumference of the upper face thereof, is formed an annular slot 45. As apparent from FIGS. 6 and 7, four passages 46 are opened and extend sideward from the annular slot 45 so that introducing passages through which the valve chest 4 communicates with a space formed by the valve seat member 9, the annular spacer 43 and the diaphragm 42.
- the outside diameter of the lower face of the valve member 17 is larger than that of the annular slot 45.
- the diameter of the through hole 47 is smaller than the inside diameter of the annular slot 45 and further than the diameter of the discharge passage 44. Accordingly, when the valve member 17 is seated on the valve seat member 9, it closes the introducing passages 45, 46, however, does not close the discharge passage 44.
- expansible medium 19 expands to thereby displace the valve member 17 downward through the diaphragm 42 and seat the valve member 17 on the valve seat member 9, so that the introducing passages 45 and 46 are closed, and the high temperature fluid, namely, steam is prevented from flowing out.
- the expansible medium 19 contracts and the valve member 17 is separated from the valve seat member 9, with the addition of fluid pressure, so that the introducing passages 45 and 46 are opened to discharge the low temperature fluid, that is, low temperature condensate out of a system from the outlet 7.
- two diaphragms may be provided and the diaphragm at the valve member side has an aperture in the steam trap of the above-mentioned construction, so that the counterflow of the fluid of the outlet side can be prevented like the first and second embodiments.
- FIG. 8 still another embodiment of a steam trap with a valve seat member of different construction is illustrated.
- FIGS. 8 and 9 on a valve seat member 9, three sideward passages 51 and a central passage 52 are formed. These introducing passages communicate with spaces formed by a valve chest 4, the valve seat member 9, an annular spacer 43 and a diaphragm 42. On the circumference of the upper face of the passage 52, is opened an annular slot 53. From this annular slot 53, are opened three passages 54 downward. Thus, discharge passages through which a space formed by the valve seat member 9, the annular spacer 43 and the diaphragm 42 communicates with an outlet 7 are formed.
- the outside diameter of the lower face of a valve member 17 is a little smaller than the outside diameter of the annular slot 53. Therefore, when the valve member 17 is seated on the valve seat member 9, it closes the introducing passages 51 and 52, however, does not close the discharge passages 53 and 54.
- the diaphragm 42 and the valve member 17 are connected to each other by respectively welding at their central parts.
